Back in 2014, I compiled a rare list of Moomin 1990s Episodes. I even went as far as to share it on peer-to-peer networks with a torrent file. The episodes I ripped from the Stax Entertainment Moomin Series DVDs. I subsequently helped in the online campaign to get the remaining episodes released by Stax Entertainment (which never happened officially). Eventually, the majority of episodes were found across the globe by fans who had episodes taped. All of which I am happy to share freely with anyone here.

Then came the new Moominvalley Series by Gutsy. Beautifully animated although too clean and cutout adding its liberal twists is still a great addition to the franchise. I led the way in enabling fans to view the live airing on the Finish state broadcaster, circumventing restrictions with my now YouTube banned video guide (still found on BitChute).

You´re in Colombia living or visiting for an extended period of time of over three Months. You've a brand new phone, you've popped in a local network's SIM and it's all happy days until you get a network message stating your device is not registered!

So your fight with the governing telecommunications body, the CRC, begins. You are about to join the many other expats and Colombians that have a device that uses radio frequencies (i.e. mobile/cell phones). You are most likely to be in this ordeal if you've brought a newly released phone into the country yourself of imported through Amazon or other sellers (namely on Mercadolibre.). There's an article of the implementation of the rule here (English translation here). If the device has been officially released in Colombia it is most probable that the company has themselves registered your device with the CRC already. If not you're going to need to submit the approval application yourself. There's no other w…

Typical Colombian Villancicos Christmas Music
This is a mix containing the very best traditional Colombian Christmas music. It is particularly aimed at younger children and elders with fond Christmas memories of the season in Colombia. All tracks are in Spanish but I have compiled a post detailed the Colombian Christmas tradition in English here.
Villancico
The villancico was a common poetic and musical form of the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America popular from the late 15th to 18th centuries. With the decline in popularity of the villancicos in the 20th century, the term became reduced to mean merely "Christmas carol". Important composers of villancicos were Juan del Encina, Pedro de Escobar, Francisco Guerrero, Gaspar Fernandes, and Juan Gutiérrez de Padilla.

Is an adventure in Colombia calling your name? Perhaps you are enthralled by the warm people, rich culture or beautiful scenery that the country offers. Or, maybe you are drawn by the prospect of a lower cost of living and the flourishing expat community. Whatever your individual reasons for considering a move to Colombia, you likely have a long list of questions. Chief among these are likely the taxes, duties, forms and customs process you’ll encounter, when importing a car and household goods into Colombia.

Importing Household Goods: Taxes and Duties.An Exact Figure Can Be Elusive.
When it comes to an exact percentage of import tax and duties you can expect to pay for your household items - unfortunately, this information can be difficult to pin down. Some expats report paying different rates when importing shipments at different times, and say that a final figure is impossible to obtain beforehand (1). Some of this variation is due to the customs officials you encounter at your spe…
